ABSTRACTStresses are introduced in crystals at interphase boundaries where steps improve the registry of atoms. A model and mathematical analysis based on an approach previously taken by van der Merwe and Shiflet1–4 of the problem incorporating a coherent step are presented. Computed distributions of stresses, strains, dilatation and energy density in the form of contours and nets are given for a coherent monatomic step. It is concluded that the maximum stresses are quite large and the fields decay fairly rapidly with distance from the steps, the gradient of dilatation around steps will significantly affect diffusion kinetics of impurities and the strain energy seems too low to significantly enhance chemical processes.

The results of investigations of the kinetics of hydrogen generation compositions with aluminum, chemical activators (hydrated sodium metasilicate, oxide and calcium hydroxide) boric acid. Aluminium and its alloys used for the manufacture of protective sheaths of fuel elements and control rod protection system management, pipelines, tanks, and various support structures in the active zone of atomic reactors RBMK, research water-cooled reactors. The aluminum is protected from direct contact with water and steam surface layer of metal oxide having a high corrosion resistance at high temperatures in powerful radiation fields. However, after removal or when the discontinuity of the oxide layer of activated metal efficiently decompose water to hydrogen. It is established that the hydrogen aluminum-containing compositions is dependent on the concentration of boric acid. The discovery of the involvement of boric acid in these reactions expands the ideas about regularities of chemical processes of formation of hydrogen flowing in the water coolant of VVER reactors with the participation of the corrective additives and impurities.

The described investigations are focused on peroxides occurring as products in atmospheric chemical processes, namely, hydrogen peroxide, methylhydroperoxide, hydroxymethylhydroperoxide, bis-(hydroxymethyl)peroxide, 1-hydroxyethylhydroperoxide, bis-(hydroxyethyl)peroxide, and hydroxymethylmethylperoxide. The compounds are identified and determined through the position and intensity of their characteristic O–O stretching bands in the range between 767 and 878 cm−1. Time-resolved Raman spectroscopy of peroxide solutions permits the in situ investigation of pathways and kinetics of reactions between peroxides and aldehydes.

AbstractThe kinetics of clay formation in buried paleosols developed from late Quaternary rhyolitic tephra layers near Rotorua, New Zealand, can be described in terms of a combination of parabolic and linear kinetics, reflecting the hydration of glass, and the formation of clay minerals, respectively. Such a model is consistent with the formation of clay minerals showing an Arrhenian temperature dependence and suggests, on the basis of calculated activation energies, that the process of formation of Al-rich allophane (imogolite) is diffusion controlled, whereas the rate of formation of Si-rich allophane is controlled by the chemical processes at the site of reaction.

Modeling ideas of physical and chemical processes when using an anodic bonding for materials connection are developed. The kinetics of a charge accumulation in an electrode region in a dielectric is considered. The thickness of a charge layer, electric fields strength and value of the ponderomotive pressure providing connection of materials are calculated. It is shown that the necessary ponderomotive pressure resulting in a dielectric-to-conductor seal is normally about ten MPa and the time required is about ten minutes.
